No progress

Just came back from my doctors appointment. I'm 38 weeks today and no progress (only 1 cm f/ last week). I don't even have Braxton Hicks except for when I go walking sometimes. I was hoping he'd be born by November because I wanted him to be almost 2 months at Christmas. Now I dread he'll go all the way to his first due date, November 14 (the new due date is 11/8). The doctor hasn't mentioned induction which is fine with me b/c I (esp Travis) want him to come on his own. I know every day is better that he's in there but I keep thinking he's full term and I want him out. He's really been a good pregnancy. Its fun now because I can see my belly move with him. He doesn't do the small kicks anymore. Now I can feel his whole body move and shift. My belly moves with him. It's fun. That's about it for me. I'm just waiting for him to push that "eject" button. :-)

Growth spurt, or what??

me at 35 1/2 weeks, 41inches

Me at 36 1/2 weeks, 44 inches

For my shower on 10/8 Dean measured my stomach from belly button around and I was 41 inches. Today, just one week later, he measured my stomach and I was 44 inches. What the heck is going on?? 3 inches in one week. I sure hope that trend does NOT keep up. Here are two pictures to compare. Can you tell a difference??

I had two lovely baby showers, one with family and the other with friends.

My good friends from high school/church.

Me, Grandma, Mom

These sonograms are from 9/27 when I was about 34 weeks. I just love them! Hopefully you can see how fat his little cheeks are. I can't wait to kiss them. The other is his profile.

Ready for baby

Douglas Alan Hill

For those who don't know our baby's name is Douglas Alan Hill. Douglas is my dad's middle name and Alan is Travis' dad's first name. I'm just posting pictures of his room today because its DONE!! Yeah!

Travis and I made this quilt for him. If you can't tell, the theme is planes. :-)
